Adding your Facebook account as a Jabber Account to your IM Client

Have an Instant Messaging program that allows you to multiple accounts ( Trillan, iChat, beejive, empathy IM, etc.) but doesn't support facebook chat or has problems connecting with facebook chat? I have figured out how you can add your facebook account as a jabber account.  Just use your facebook user name (that's the portion that comes after www.facebook.com/... on your facebook url) @chat.facebook.com. So for example my facebook url is www.facebook.com/jasonmatthewdarr. So my jabber account would be jasonmatthewdarr@chat.facebook.com.  Then use your facebook password as the the password and now you can be distracted by your friends without even being logged into facebook!
